The Power of Moving Pictures

I've spent the better part of 18-months talking to anyone that will listen about the power of images in education, and that we need to define our own success and become our own storyteller-in-chief. This message has taken me around the country, and I hope that it has planted some seeds among teachers and school leaders. This TED-talk brings to a close my cycle with this message at the intensity that it has been a part of my presentations. I would love to teach a class based on classic film, where kids watched great movies for 90 minutes and then talk about them for the next two hours. Dream, Believe. Hope. Schools are changing, but an awesome part of the solution.
